<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">The Triple P Program is an evidence- based program focused
on parenting children from the age 2-12 years old. It provides parents with
positive parenting techniques and strategies to teach children the skills to be
independent, manage their feelings, solve problems, and communicate to get
along with others. It has a cognitive behavior approach to parenting to help
children as well as parents make goals for change. Parents will be able to
develop their own personalized plans for positive parenting strategies. </p>
